Nothing is every wasted in France.
Note the recycling of used tools in the bars.

Gorgeous!…both the doors and windows….and as for the staircase! Could the tools denote the trade of the inhabitant rather than purely recycling? I love in the Haute Savoie when the windows are looking out on mountains with swans gliding on the lake below and people put up net curtains on same windows with a design of mountains with swans gliding on a lake below!

Thank you Ma’am. With ref to the cutters in the window, I agree, they probably had something to do with the owners trade but would certainly not have been put into the window until blunt past resharpening.
As for the stairs in the Presbytery, check the old shot of the stairs complete with boiler which I have just added to the post.
that’s something what I like the most, few shots from one place (and one theme) set together. Beautiful job, Martin.
My favourite, of course, the small window with the tiny bar-rosette. And the L’Echoppe doors.

Ah Jedrzej, you have no idea of the archicectural gems of the Languedoc.
